Hello,

I am using Microsoft Visual Stuido 2005. When I publish my web
project, this version seems to delete all the folder/files in the
directory before it publishes.

I need to have a folder that does not get deleted when I publish. It
contains some large files that I do not need as part of the project but
need to be on the web site.

Is there a way to mark a file/folder so that it does not get deleted
during a publish?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony

Have it publish to another server and xcopy the files. Or, use the build
options and build the site and then move it over. If you want to automate
this, try nAnt or MSBuild.
